How is Angular Momentum Related to Linear Momentum?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on understanding the relationship between angular momentum and linear momentum through various physics questions. Key topics include calculating torque, the difficulty of rotating objects with different diameters, and the factors affecting the direction of rotation. Participants emphasize the importance of showing work and reasoning to facilitate better assistance. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by the original poster in grasping these concepts, despite having consulted the textbook. Engaging with the material and seeking help is encouraged for deeper understanding.

Help with Angular Momentum!

I am trying to figure out these questions and i just don't know. So I thought maybe you could help me.

Thanks

1: A bolt on a car engine is to be tightened with a torque of 35 Newton meters. If you have a 25 cm long wrench, what force should you exert?
1.4 N
1.4 x 102 N
8.8 N
8.8 x 10-1 N

2: Two disks have the same mass, but one (designated as D) has twice the diameter of the other (designated as d). Which would be harder to start rotating?
D
d
They are equally hard to rotate
Not enough information given


5: The direction of the rotation of a spinning object can be changed only by applying a(n) ______.
Force
Torque
Velocity
None of the Above

6: To relate the Angular momentum of a particle with its linear momentum, you need the particle’s:
Displacement from the origin
Distance from the origin
Velocity vector
Torque

7: Mass is an analogous linear quantity to the angular form of:
Weight
Torque
Inertia
Acceleration

8: As a gyroscope slows down due to friction, the rate of precession increases due to:
The direct relationship between angular momentum and precession
The inverse relationship between inertia and angular acceleration
The direct relationship between torque and angular acceleration
The inverse relationship between angular momentum and precession

9: The heavy rim around a Frisbee is useful because it gives it:
A large moment of inertia
A small moment of inertia
A decrease in the gyroscopic effect
An increase in it’s precession

10: An object moving in a circle at constant speed has:
No acceleration
Acceleration tangent to the circle
Acceleration towards the center of the circle
Acceleration away from the center of the circle

You need to help yourself first before you can expect anyone to help you on this forum. It's the rules. Many of these questions are easy. Did you look at the book?

I did look at the book. This test is HARD! I figured out most of the questions but still have three more to go.
 


Which ones? Show your work/discuss your thinking for each.
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
Thread 'Trying to understand the logic behind adding vectors with an angle between them'
My initial calculation was to subtract V1 from V2 to show that from the perspective of the second aircraft the first one is -300km/h. So i checked with ChatGPT and it said I cant just subtract them because I have an angle between them. So I dont understand the reasoning of it. Like why should a velocity be dependent on an angle? I was thinking about how it would look like if the planes where parallel to each other, and then how it look like if one is turning away and I dont see it. Since...
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
